why does it say: "card cannot be accessed" on my canon 7d when I first put it in?

This card may not be compatible with the 7d. Check with more Canon users. I shoot Nikon and it works like a charm.

Quite possible that one of the pins is bent inside the camera.... I would check that first.

If it's an old SD (only) memory card, that may not be working. Try the newer SDHC ones.

Sometimes sd cards need to be formatted. If this is not the case in your situation, then look up trouble shooting for the card reader. All else fails you can obviously try another card or contact customer service for the manufacturer, they should be able to walk you through trouble shooting and correcting the problem.

If you take the card out and look to see a tiny slider, slide it the other way and put back in the camera.That should do it, or try a different card.

Any solution for the memory card format problem of 7 years ago? Still having the same issue with my Kodak EasyShare

Hi K!I am plugging it into the USB port directly, I don't have a card reader. iPhoto didn't recognize it... its own software that came on the cd (ancient) didn't see it... I got out the instructional booklet and did all the dumb stuff... you know. The spec's for the product don't advertise that they cover 10.5.5, which is the sad part. I'm hoping that's something they will fix soon? Or I'll figure out a workaround soon. Let me know if you have any luck!

Your SD card inside the camera has a little slide button on the side that locks the card so nothing can be deleted. You have to take it out and slide it to the unlocked position if you want to delete or clear the card

have had two two 32GB KomputerBay cards that I use very profusely in my 7D and 5D MKIII without error. I have never experienced the error you speak of. I formatted the cards the first time I used them in the 7D. I have at leat 20,000 clicks on each of these cards so far, no glitches.Roy.

You have a card problem, some cameras have problem reading micro cards in adaptors or just the size of the card capacity (64 GB) try a 32GB/64GB regular size card.

My Nikon V2 will not recognize this card. When you put it in the camera this message appears: "This memory card cannot be used. Card may be damaged; insert a different card." I have tried formatting the card and updating the firmware on the camera. It works find in other cameras and on my computer (iMac). I can't find any info on this problem anywhere.

No Clue. You might try a different card. I have been having trouble with the HD/SD cards in some of my deer cameras.

No. Turn off power to camera. Remove, then reinsert data card. Format card again. If that doesn't work, it may be the card has errors. If that is the case, then reformat the card in your computer. Then repeat the formatting process in your camera.

Try resetting camera by using a needle. Insert needle in little between usb port and memory card. Worked for me.

I see you're getting various answers. I also did what you are trying to do. The best advice I can give you is to contact Canon & ask them. That's what I did & they got me on the right track. Lots of luck.

Yep, I have the same problem. Luckily, I connected the camera with the card in it, directly into my PC with the USB connector that came with the camera. The pictures downloaded just fine. I thought the card was defective until I saw your post.

My g1w ruined 2 new cards within two weeks. Based on recommendations online I used transcend 32 class 10. The camera locked the cards half full and I couldn't add, delete or format the cards. Spent hours trying various methods. No word back from blackbox as to why this happened. Im returning the camera and not sure if ill take another chance on a new one.

Thanks for the reply. We actually ended up returning the camera to FP after calling the help center and trying different cards. The card reader must have been broken, because the replacement camera they sent us, read all the cards we had tried in the old one... FP did send the new camera with no problem.
